FSO 125 1.5 81

The FSO 125 1.5 81 reaches 60 mph in 15.03 s (100 km/h in 16.03 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 20.52 s, tripping the lights at 70.3 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 3.64 s and the eighth mile in 13.48 s.

Simulated, not measured — computed from published kerb mass, rated power, gearing and drivetrain, then fitted to this car’s own published acceleration figures. Dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

About the 125 1.5 81

The 1968 FSO 125 1.5 81 is a rear-drive naturally aspirated car of 971 kg with 80 bhp, which works out at 83 bhp per tonne. Rear drive and 83 bhp per tonne make the launch the hard part of the run: 60 ft takes 3.64 s. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 14,440th quickest to 60 mph, and the 3rd quickest of the 6 FSOs here. Its 70.3 mph trap speed sits about where its 0-60 puts it, so it launches and pulls in roughly equal measure. The simulation is trimmed to 2 of 2 published acceleration figures for this car.

Questions

What is the FSO 125 1.5 81 0-60 time?
The FSO 125 1.5 81 reaches 60 mph in 15.03 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 14,440th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the FSO 125 1.5 81 quarter mile time?
20.52 s at 70.3 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 13.48 s and clears the first 60 ft in 3.64 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the FSO 125 1.5 81 have?
80 bhp and 971 kg, which is 83 bhp per tonne. It is rear-drive, naturally aspirated, with 4 gears and a quoted top speed of 150 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the FSO 125 1.5 81?
Closest here on pace: Toyota Corolla 3dr 1.3 86 (14.86 s), Hyundai i10 1.0 67 (15.24 s), Chevrolet Matiz / Spark (M300) 1.2 82 (14.55 s). Each one can be raced against the FSO 125 1.5 81 in the panel at the top of this page. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
Are these real measured times?
No. Every figure on this page is produced by a physics simulation, not by a stopwatch at a drag strip. The FSO 125 1.5 81 is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 2 of its 2 published acceleration figures. Conditions are the same for every car in the set: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
